That's broadcast TV. The major networks (ABC/NBC/CBS) had censors. Cable gets away with a lot more, and if it's streaming only there are basically no rules.

    Broadcast TV is always more censored because it uses public airways, so the feds have jurisdiction... but for the purposes of this discussion of old-timey censorship, there is only the big three to worry about--cable and streaming were nary a glimmer in little Ricky's eye.
